Table of Contents

Red Sea, one of the leading companies in the marine aquarium industry, has launched the new MAX NANO G2 series, which offers advanced technology in compact aquarium systems. This series includes models such as Cube, Peninsula, and XL, each differing in capacity and size, but all designed with a “plug and play” philosophy. These advanced aquariums are an ideal solution for both beginners and experienced aquarists who value full automation and high-quality construction. If you’re unsure which aquarium size to choose, I recommend reading the article on ReefPedia – “Aquarium set up – what size should I choose?”.

MAX NANO G2 XL – Overview

MAX NANO G2 XL is the largest and most advanced model in the Red Sea MAX NANO G2 series, designed for nano-aquarium enthusiasts who want more space to house corals and marine organisms. Thanks to its advanced technology and extensive features, this model combines user convenience with excellent conditions for creating a stable reef ecosystem.

Key Features of MAX NANO G2 XL

  • Capacity
    The MAX NANO G2 XL measures 50x50x60 cm (20″x20″x24″) and offers a capacity of 125 liters (33 gallons), making it the largest model in the series. With its larger space, the aquarium allows for more complex reef arrangements, with additional room for corals and marine organisms. The aquarium is made of ultra-clear 8mm glass, which beautifully reflects the vibrant colors of marine life. Additionally, the tank’s carefully polished edges add a touch of elegance.
  • ReefLED 50 Lighting
    The integrated lighting system, the 50 W ReefLED 50 lamp, is mounted on a tilting joint. Controlled via the ReefBeat app, this lighting provides optimal conditions for coral growth. The lamp offers the perfect combination of blue and white light (23,000 K), which supports the growth and vibrant colors of corals. Additionally, the lamp can simulate sunrise and sunset and features a special moonlight channel for nighttime observation.
  • Filtration System
    The aquarium is equipped with a filtration system hidden in a 14-liter rear compartment, shielded by a tilting curtain. It includes a built-in Max Nano Protein Skimmer, which effectively removes organic pollutants, ensuring water cleanliness and proper oxygenation. Furthermore, this model can optionally be fitted with the NanoMat mechanical filtration system, which automatically filters water using a fleece roller, removing detritus, leftover food, organic waste, and other impurities for crystal-clear water.
  • ReefATO+ – Automatic Water Top-Off
    The MAX NANO G2 XL is fully compatible with the ReefATO+ system, ensuring automatic water replenishment and stable salinity levels. Evaporation in marine aquariums causes fluctuations in salinity, so regular automated freshwater top-offs are crucial for maintaining stability. The included freshwater reservoir typically lasts 2-3 days, depending on the system’s evaporation rate. The set can optionally be equipped with ReefATO+.
  • Circulation Pump
    The MAX NANO G2 XL model is equipped with a Sicce circulation pump with a capacity of 1550 l/h, ensuring proper water circulation essential for the health of marine organisms. This pump is seamlessly integrated into the panel, making operation and monitoring easy. One of the pump’s advantages is its efficient and quiet performance.
  • Cabinet
    The elegant cabinet under the aquarium is coated with saltwater-resistant epoxy paint, providing long-lasting protection against moisture. Stainless steel hinges are used to mount the doors, enhancing the cabinet’s resistance to corrosion and high salinity. The cabinet serves as an ideal place to store aquarium equipment, such as a chiller. Available in black or white, the solid construction of the cabinet complements the aquarium’s modern design.

Who is MAX NANO G2 XL for?

MAX NANO G2 XL is the perfect choice for both beginner and experienced marine aquarists looking for a compact yet spacious system. Its fully automated functions, ease of maintenance, and modern design make it a “plug and play” solution for anyone wanting an advanced nano aquarium in their home.

Conclusion

The Red Sea MAX NANO G2 XL is an excellent nano aquarium for those who value convenience and advanced technology in a small space. Its innovative features, such as superb ReefLED lighting, the automatic ReefATO+ top-off system, and an advanced filtration system, make it one of the best choices in its class. With its larger capacity, the XL model allows for more elaborate reef setups, offering the perfect environment for corals and other marine life.

My fascination with marine aquariums began over two decades ago when I stumbled upon an article about this topic in a magazine. Since then, the underwater world has become my obsession and passion, shaping my everyday life. I started my adventure with marine aquariums with soft corals, which were my first step into this fascinating world. Over time, captivated by the diversity and beauty of SPS corals, I decided to focus on their cultivation, which continues to fill me with constant wonder.

Thanks to my experience and passion for marine aquariums, I am ready to share my knowledge and expertise with other enthusiasts in this field. I am happy to be part of the Reef Pedia community, which serves as an invaluable source of information for all marine aquarium lovers.
